Thermal-throttling

Should I disable CPU thermal-throttling?
Does it make a difference?

No leave it on. It will only slow cpu if its overheating which is what you want it to do anhow. When operating as it should it will not kick in whenver cpu is used-like gaming # crucnhing. When in standby etc. another story-but then who cares when your not useing. Save the power I say.

Yeah, its mostly a power saving feature, you shouldn't really be able to notice a performance increase from turning it off, so leave it on I say.
